For many companies, workers’ compensation is a HUGE concern. Costs often escalate very quickly and business owners often don’t have anywhere to turn for quality answers. Due to this, we’ve seen companies overpay significantly on their workers compensation premiums by hundreds of thousands of dollars every year.

Our CompGuard Workers Compensation Cost Containment Platform includes:

  • Risk Assessment and Blueprint
  • Training, Educational and Accountability tools to help speed up internal company adoption
  • Loss Prevention Plan and Resources
  • Claims Management and Advocacy
  • Workers Comp Cost Recovery and Mod Review
  • Annual Review

CompGuard was built for companies who do not have their own risk management departments but want the ROI only a solid risk management department can deliver.

We begin with Risk Assessment of your current program. We benchmark ALL your current costs (direct & indirect) and loss control strategy while analyzing company strengths and weakness in their safety protocols. CompGuard will issue you a Blueprint and train you, your supervisors, and your employees on best safety practice protocols. CompGuard will issue you a Blueprint and train you, your supervisors, and your employees on best safety practice protocols.

Meanwhile our Claims Advocates will engage on all of your open claims seeking opportunities to improve outcomes and reduce your reserves, as this is essential to a lower experience Mod factor. It’s going to take a commitment to doing things the right way but after one to two years your efforts will pay off and your ROI should be substantial. In fact, we’ve never had a client sign on to CompGuard who didn’t get a return on their investment after two years.

CompGuard Risk Assessment and Blueprint

Our program starts with Risk Assessment and Blueprint to understand what the strengths are of your organization and where your systems and staff may need additional resources. It measures both leading indicators (safety program activities & loss control visits) and lagging indicators (numbers, cost, & cause of claims) for each of your locations. You will then receive the Blueprint and a worksheet to begin building your program.

The blueprint is the basis from which we all work to manage and track all the critical information as it relates to your claims. The system provides key K.P.I.’s (Key Performance Indicators) & trends which are focused on performance and costs which will help define the cost drivers in your business. This system allows us to hold all stakeholders accountable for the ultimate results. Lack of accountability is the number one reason why companies fail as it relates to employee injuries.

CompGuard Training & Education

We organize training around three core staff groupings in your organization to help accelerate internal adoption:

  • Executive Team to get buy in and provide leadership
  • HR and Supervisors to teach them what’s critical when an employee is injured and why, and lastly, your
  • Field Staff who are the most important folks in the whole process as they have the relationships with the line employees.

In addition, we offer a powerful library of risk management educational tools to help educate your staff on best practices. Additionally, we help you stay on top of the latest industry trends through our network of the nation’s best thought leaders in risk management.
